The Gangs of Maudeheim, Part I 01/06/19

The Critic:

 

 

 

 
...AND The Group to date:

 

 
...have a Good Night!  

AND the last of the Gypsy Characters; i.e., The Chief:

 

 

 

 
...with the Group Portrait:




AND in preparation for some photos, I'm touching up & dusting the Witches' Isles of Langerhans:

...it is surprising where the dust settles.  

Excellent choice of color scheme for the gypsy troupe. They look so well together I couldn't pick a favorite if I had to. I like the variant shroom colors on the not-so-blind witch also. The last group shot isn't coming up on my end.

No group shot for me either, but the individuals look great

There you go. Something must have gone wrong with the posting; the images coding was all screwed up. It must have been the Gremlins again.
I'm happy you both liked the individuals, AND took the time to say so.  

AND an update, the last of the Gypsy Hench Persons are done:









 

 

 

 
...with the Group Photos:

 

 

 
...some arty photos sooner or later.  

Arty...what was his last name...

Gotta love mobs with torches, even if there are only two of them. Love those gypsies, they add another dimension to the creepiness.

The chief is my favorite.

Thanks, Jim. I'm glad you like the Gypsy Folk. The Chief is my favorite as well; I think it's the resemblance to Broderick Crawford that does it for me.  

Is that colour periwinkle blue?

It is similar. I did a base of true blue with highlights of calypso blue & Indian turquoise...these ar all Americana colors.  

This is an idea that has been festering in a particularly fertile & equally peculiar corner of my mind. AND now it comes forth as something REALLY SILLY; i.e., my latest kit-bashing creation. the Infamous Goblin Faerie:

 

 

 

 
...he will probably wind up hovering over some suitably annoyed Mushroom.

Priceless!

Thanks, Jim...glad you like him.  
Here he is base coated & hovering over the Mushroom. I haven't decided how high over the Mushroom I want him; SO he isn't glued in place yet. This made keeping him in one position long enough for the photos interesting:


...doesn't have an endearing smile though?:


AND I have a second one put together & ready to base coat:








...they are addictive Little Suckers.

Great work!

Thanks, Codsticker. I'm glad you like them.

Everything worth doing once is worth doing again

This is true...I have the second one all base coated & ready to paint. I wound up taking LOTS of photos of The Witches' Isles until just now. I'll be posting them when my eye can focus again.  

AND here are the Faerie Folk in base colors:

 
...I roughed up the bows for a wood grain effect:

 


... I did a size comparison with Hoggle, the Faerie Slayer. I hate not using pic; SO:


...today I'm of the see if my Cochlear Implant is working. See you on the manana!  

Hope the implant is working, unless its a tracking devise...

Woot flitty goblins!

Thanks, Jim. I'm glad you like the new Fly Boys; AND the old cochlear implant & the new processor are working splendidly together. While I'll never hear music again & the audio portion of TV & movies is lost, I can have conversations again. I'm picking up a myriad of other sounds to add color to the day as well.

AND then there were four:

 

 

 
...all together:

 

 
...who knows what I'll do with the rest of the wings?...The Shadow do.

Good to see this.

The winged ones are multiplying like... things that multiply

The scary part is that there are always more wings.

Thanks, Jim...it is just so cool to be able to follow a conversation.
I've run out of the particular type of wings I use for these Guys. There are a smaller set that might work & I did get some bat style wings as well. However, I think I'll finish these Fellows before I add others to the mix...probably...or not.  

I absolutely love those goblin faeries!! The old goblins minis have a mischievous look that was lost with the new ones, so they perfectly fits with the theme!!

A lot of time passed since last time you used a gw model, isn´t it?

Thanks for the kind reply, jymmy. I am delighted you like the Goblin Faeries.
The Old G.W. plastic Night Goblins have such merry expressions. That combined with the multi-parts makes them perfect for my conversion attempts. The new ones have attitude problems probably due to their more diminutive stature.
The Last G.W. things I bought were a box of Empire Archers & some plastic Zombies. I haven't gotten around to doing the Archers, but the zombies are prime material for conversions...they have the most beautiful hands. I tend to look at all the plastic G.W. stuff as parts rather than miniatures. The metal one are quite nice as they are.
If you like my Goblins, I have an Army of Night Goblins & Associates in the Fantasy Shout Out Section that you might enjoy.
